White fungus (tremella fuciformisis) is also known as snow fungus. It is commercially cultivated due to its popularity in Chinese cuisine and medicine. It is wildly found on the dead branches of broadleaf trees.

In Mandarin Chinese, it is called 银耳 (pinyin: yín ěr; literally silver ear), 雪耳 (pinyin: xuě ěr; literally snow ear); or 白木耳 (pinyin: bái mù ěr, literally white wood ear), and in Japanese it is called shiro kikurage (シロキクラゲ, lit. white tree jellyfish). In Vietnam, it is called nấm tuyết or ngân nhĩ.

White fungus develops a soft texture when cooked and is commonly used in soups and sweet desserts. In Chinese families, it is commonly used in soups.

Preparation & Storage:

Only dried white fungus is sold in Asian supermarkets. Usually it is stored in a cool dark place.

When it is dried it is yellow in colour. The colour changes to white once it have been soaked in water. White fungus should be covered with water as it expands considerably. I generally soak it in water for at least an hour or until it is transparent before cooking with it.

The bottom of the white fungus will still remain hard and needs to be removed before it can be used.

Cooking with White Fungus:

White fungus is cooked with rock sugar in a sweet soup or with chicken in a savory version is among the popular dishes. Occasionally, you may also see it in stir-fries, vegetarian style in particular
